Let me try:

Normal force= 169.74N

Coefficient of kinetic friction= 0.577

Explanation

a. For a given inclined plane, normal friction is equal to the force perpendicular to the plane which is equal to

mgcos theta = 20×9.8× cos30 = 169.74N

b. The coefficient of kinetic friction for an inclined plane is given as

tan theta =tan 30 = 0.577

Karla Ayala pulls a sled on an icy road (dangerous!). Because of Karla's pull, the tension force is 151 N, and the rope makes a
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

W = 1418.9 J = 1.418 KJ

Explanation:

In order to find the work done by the pull force applied by Karla, we need to can use the formula of work done. This formula tells us that work done on a body is the product of the distance covered by the object with the component of force applied in the direction of that displacement:

W = F.d

W = Fd Cosθ

where,

W = Work Done = ?

F = Force = 151 N

d = distance covered = 10 m

θ = Angle with horizontal = 20°

Therefore,

W = (151 N)(10 m) Cos 20°

<u>W = 1418.9 J = 1.418 KJ</u>

Think about Newton's 2nd Law, Force equals mass times acceleration. Liz puts a 1 kg weight and a 10 kg weight on identical wagon

More force is needed for more mass. Therefore, if the mass is greater and the force is not enough then the object will less likely accelerate

If both of these balls are traveling down a bowling lane at the SAME speed, which one would would have more kinetic energy?
Mariana [72]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Ball A has more kinetic energy</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

As we know that Kinetic energy is given by

K. E = 1/2 mv²

Since K E is dependent upon both mass and velocity so increasing mass will produce more kinetic energy if the speed remains constant

As the mass of ball A is greater than ball B so we can say that the kinetic energy of ball is more than ball B
